25 | Licensing Program Analyst (LPA) Melody Brown conducted an announced Case Management Visit to Tamarind Senior Care. LPA Brown explained to Administrator Sotero Chandler Ramas III that the Case Management Visit Report (LIC 809) completed today is in reference to complaint AS-20210823113426 and therefore the citation issued today (LIC 809D) also pertains to complaint AS-20210823113426.
The investigation was conducted by LPA Melody Brown. The investigation consisted of records review and interviews with relevant parties. The allegation indicates that staff were not assisting R1 with administration of medications. LPA Brown obtained evidence to corroborate the allegation above. Staff reported that all client medications are centrally stored and administered according to their physician’s orders. However, LPA Brown learned that no medication records existed for R1. The facility was unable to provide LPA Brown with any documentation showing when R1’s medications were dispensed as prescribed by R1’s physician.
Based on LPA Brown’s observations and records review, the preponderance of evidence standard has been met, and therefore the above allegation of staff not assisting resident with administration of medications is found to be SUBSTANTIATED. A finding that the complaint is SUBSTANTIATED means that the allegation is valid because the preponderance of the evidence standard has been met. LPA Brown provided copies of both the LIC 809D as well as this report, LIC 809 to Administrator Ramas III.
